Space-time boundary element methods for the heat equation
Project overview
Project overview
BESTHEA is the joint Austrian-Czech project Space-Time Boundary Element Methods for the Heat Equation supported by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) and the Czech Science Foundation (GAČR). The aim of the project is to develop fast highly scalable parallel solver for the heat equation in 3D based on the space-time boundary element method which will enable adaptive refinement in space and time. The jointly developed software is called BESTHEA (Boundary Element Solver for The Heat EquAtion) as well.
